Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War delivers a level of visual detail never before seen in an RTS. Hundreds of units clash on the battlefields of the dark future, unleashing massive destruction through a stunning battery of long-range weaponry before closing in for the finish. Incredible kill animations bring science fiction combat to life like never before, and the gritty future-gothic Warhammer 40,000 setting provides a striking tableau for the chaos and carnage of this grim, dark future, where there is only war!
In honor of Firestorm over Kronus making MODDB's Top 100 Mods of 2008, we are releasing a fairly recent internal build of the mod. Beta 3.1 was a while ago and Beta 3.5 is soon to be released, but in the mean time we want you all to get a taste for what 3.5 has in store.
In honor of Firestorm over Kronus making MODDB's Top 100 Mods of 2008, we are releasing a fairly recent internal build of the mod. Beta 3.1 was a while ago and Beta 3.5 is soon to be released, but in the mean time we want you all to get a taste for what 3.5 has in store. We are calling this a Release Candidate. The code is pretty much nailed down but there are some textures missing and still some bugs that need squashing. But this is a definitely a playable build and we hope you all enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed making it.
Note: This version includes the Black Templars as a playable race. No need to download any addons.

woooot :D
This version includes Black Templars. So no need to download them as a separate race. :)
btw - the campaign is not yet officially supported. Most of the maps do work but some stronghold missions will crash. We are working on fixing the kinks in campaign but for now our main focus is on MP and skirmish.
This is a good way to celebrate the nomination. RC 1218 has some awesome news. But I have to question:
1.- What are the new win conditions: $15005070; $15005020; $15005021; $15005000; $15005084 and $15005086?.
2.- Can we post comments of this RC in fok forum, or this is a present for people to vote you here? (joke). I did it before I had seen it.
hey sorry to bug you but in general skirmishes is it common place for the game to alo crash and cut out aswell? its just i asboslutely adore this game and it just keeps crashing on me :'(
Those win conditions are from Fuggles. I can't remember all of the off the top of my head. One was WordUp, another Random mission objectives. Looks like the UCS range is wrong or something. I'll check into that.
This RC is solely for Moddb Top 100 so we aren't advertising it over at the forums. :)
Thank you. But don´t worry, I think I find the solution. The problem is that my DC is the spanish version, and the locale files seem to be not completed. I have changed this for the files in english folder (larger than in the spanish folder). I am going to confirm the solution when i can try the game.
Thanks again.
Confirmed. It is fixed. Thank you.
well:
first: amazing mod ...
second: wtf WONDERFULL ArmyPaintings thx alot :D
third: Balancing: are you kiding me? HeavyBolter turrtes making NO Dmg to Marine -.- and some other RessourceBalanceing -.- GRRRRRR, TOO EXPENSIVE STUFF !
fourth: well my favorite Race, the Imperial Guard is ... unplayable ...
lots of Producingicons are missing, so i cant build troopers or tanks (no bane! >.<)
no chance to win with two squads some Sentinels and 1 RusTank oO*
testing now the other Races ...
so long. plz fix this ! >.<
edit: sry for my english ^^
LOL never mind the trouble about the IG ... i have to choose a Doctrine to unlook the units ...
in the one hand, this is a realy good idea, but in the other hand .. a bit unusal and confusing
about the balancing, plz rework the weapondamge .. bolter are HEAVY machineguns .. dealing nearly zero DMg to other troopers ... i know closer to codex, but hitting a Eldar-Guardsman with a 50cal. Rocketbullet should deal a lot of dmg ...
all this was fine in 3.1 oO
What gives??? Where's the download mirror of Moddb?
First of all, congratulations of a truly amazing Mod. One of the best that i have played, and i've been playing modded games since... for ever.
Unfortunately there are still a few bugs that need to be worked through, but hey, it's still Beta. I can't wait for the next version though.
Keep up the good work!
Darth_Lazarus, heavily armored buildings like turrets can't be hurt by T1 weapons. This is to discourage rushing.
I do believe he was referring to the fact that his heavy bolters weren't doing diddly to the Spess Mahrines.
Is this only a DC mod? I really liked the first FOK mod I tried. Its very fun, and it still seems very well balanced!
Thanks for this great mod!
Only DC for now. After our next release we will be going to Soul Storm.
Hey, is there gonna be a chaos dreadnought for the CSMs and a venerable dreadnought for the SMs?
This mod looks awesome, but when I tried to download it says it has invalid data. Is there a certain program I need to run it?
@lion_cat: Venerable Dread is in the internal so it will be in 3.5! :)
@Deamonfist: not sure what the problem is. Try redownloading it. Your download probably got corrupted.
This release of your mod rocks!!! I'm lovin' all of the new changes,like the more customizable units and smaller heads for the SMs and CSMs. I think(only in my opinion)that a knock-back effect should be added when an assault marine or raptor squad uses the jump ability on your enemies. I can't wait for the next release and also that Venerable Dread. Thank You for making this Mod! It's the best one ever made for Dawn of War(only in what I think) I love it!!!!!!!
True the DOWNLOAD does not work.Her is the Link for file front
Files.filefront.com
Its a great mod, but i have a problem. When some time is elapsed in a skirmish game, the game closes and it appears a message saying there was a problem. Do anyone knows what can i do? because i really want to play this mod.
thanks!!!
I think I found what happens! for some reason when i select a principal research (for example nurgle in chaos or inquisition in IG) after some time playing it takes me out of the game, if anyone knows anything i can do please help me, cause the models of the chaos marines from each daemon are awesome.
Thanks
I also want to say congratulations to everyone that worked or is working on the mod!!! this is the best mod I've played, you all did a great job on it, from the new SM and CSM models to balance and every research.
I can't wait for the 3.5 to be realesed!!!
Ixty, that's odd. Make a thread on our mod forums about the problem.
I have the same prob. deamonfist had, how do i fix this? i mean, seriously, i've downloaded this file so much it aint funny anymore. i've spent about five days trying to get it to work, but every time it says invalid data. "help, please?"
I have some flat grey textures on some of my units; the Black Templar Pred for one; is this to be expected or is it my machine? I can provide screenshots if you want.
I very like this MOD.many many thx for Ira_Aduro!
awsome very great
Any Idea on what and when we can expect to see the soulstorm version? and if it will include playable factions such as blood angels and ultramarines becuase i found the idea of making each army unique very cool. such as the black knights also witch hunters deamon hunters and CUSTODES! would be a very welcome addiction ( if there is time there is ) also im having alot of problems with my in gmae play keep cutting out when things get abit to busey any particular reason this may be happening ?
We are finishing up the last DC release and then it's on to Soul Storm.
